    A sum of Rs. 10000 is lent partly at 8% and remaining at 10% per annum. If the yearly interest on the average is 9.2%, the two parts are

    A) Rs. 4000, Rs. 6000

    B) Rs. 4500, Rs. 5500

    C) Rs. 5000, Rs. 5000         

    D) Rs. 5500, Rs. 4500

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the first part \[=Rs.\,x\] \[\therefore \] The second part \[=Rs.(10000-x)\] According to question,             \[\frac{x\times 8\times 1}{100\times 2}+\frac{(10000-x)\times 10\times 1}{100\times 2}\]             \[=\frac{10000\times 9.2\times 1}{100\times 2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[8x+100000-10x=92000\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=4000\] \[\therefore \]      First part \[=Rs.\,4000\] and second part \[=Rs.(10000-4000)=Rs.\,6000\]
